Meet Yolande

Welcome to Kindred Connections!

I am an Independent Clinical Social Worker dedicated to supporting adoptive parents in Central Alabama. I hold my LICSW-S, and PIP certifications. I am also SAFE Certified (Structured Analysis Family Evaluation).

With over 22 years of social work experience, my background includes Adoption Home Studies, Adult & Child Protective Services, Mental Health, School Social Work, Public Health, and Inpatient Acute Care. For the past decade, I have primarily been serving Veterans and Caregivers with the Department of Veteran's Affairs.

My passion for adoption ignited 15 years ago while providing intensive case management services to medically fragile foster children. Adoption is a journey of faith from start to finish. I would be delighted to assist you with your home study, post-study needs, or any questions you may have.
